Red White and Blue

Another acrylic painting. This was painted at the same time as the Genie one. This is basically me making fun of the glasses I have been wearing.

We have these little cranberry juices and they come in a bottle where is says in Giant letters American Bounty, and on the back Product of USA. I was thinking, well, since the root of the word for genie and genius is genus, and there are lamps everywhere and I am a genius, what better abstract play on words and paint would there be than to show the genie coming out of a cranberry bottle. After all, like the juice, being bottled up, ready to come out for spillage or consumption, so too is the Genie. All right, I'm rambling, but that's basically the idea here.

Oh, this painting is on paper and done in acrylic. Thanks.
